A warehouse floor manager is marking a rectangular zone for new shelving. To ensure the corner is a true 90-degree angle, they use the '3-4-5 rule.' If they measure 3 meters along one line and 4 meters along the perpendicular line, what must the diagonal distance be to confirm the corner is square?

A solar technician is installing a mounting rack for a solar array. To ensure the frame is perfectly square (90 degrees), the technician measures 3 decimeters along one rail and 4 decimeters along the adjacent rail. According to the '3-4-5 rule,' what must the diagonal distance between these two points be to confirm the corner is square?
A machinist is verifying that a metal block has a perfectly square corner. They measure 3 centimeters along one edge and 4 centimeters along the adjacent perpendicular edge. According to the standard '3-4-5 rule' used to confirm a 90-degree angle, what must the diagonal distance be between these two points?
